Transformation properties of the transverse mass under transverse Lorentz boosts at hadron colliders

Abstract The transverse mass of semi-invisibly decaying particles, calculated from the transverse momenta of their decay products, has been used in a broad range of searches and measurements at hadron colliders, such as the LHC. This variable is invariant by construction under Lorentz boosts purely...
